Young star Shimron Hetmyer can take the fight to India again

Fifth ODI
8am Thursday

Fears that India's ODI series against the West Indies would be as one-sided as last month's Test contests have been dispelled as the Indians hold a 2-1 lead heading into the final clash on Thursday.

India were dominant in Monday's fourth ODI in Mumbai, winning by 224 runs, but the preceding three games were extremely close with one win apiece and a pulsating draw in Visag.

Alongside Shai Hope, young batsman Shimron Hetmyer has played a starring role for the Windies notching scores of 106, 94, 37 and 13 in the series and looks a spot of value at 9-2 to lead the tourists' resistance with the bat again.
